The editions of the orchestral parts of most symphonic works had
a cover pages when produced by Breitkopf & Härtel that was a
baroque glory. You could study it for a week and find new things
in it. There was a bear (which is how Barenreiter got its name),
and curlycues, and organ pipes, and good knows what else. When
you played a Breitkopf & Hartel edition, the cover page with all
the baroque noodles on screamed "AUTHENTIC!!!!!!!!!".

B&H oftentimes refers to Boosey & Hawkes. The NYPL references use
B&H for
Boosey & Hawkes, Breitkopf for Breithopf & Hartel.
